That's brilliant! It must be lovely to see them emerging, not to mention a relief! How old are your sliders?

Good oh another pond keeper.
My YBS popped his head out on Monday 2nd for a brief moment. Now it snowed today so it will be a while before I see em again.
Ive got a thing about outdoor ponds. Not many of us are doing it. Forgive me for being pushy on data. My water temp at bottom was 7.2c and 8.5c at 6 inches. What size is your pond and how deep. I would also guess you have masses of pond weed. Do you have fish? What food do you give during the summer? What aspect is your pond ie How much sun does it get. Please post some pictures. A picture of one my cooters.  Roll on the summer. Cheers Rom |
